White Cube Bermondsey

White Cube Bermondsey is the gallery’s third and largest venue in London. More than 5440 m2 (58,000 sq ft) of existing 1970’s warehouse space were transformed to provide exhibition spaces, warehousing, private viewing rooms, an auditorium and a bookshop.

Site Context

Plan in Context

There are three distinct exhibition areas: The 'South Galleries' provide 780m2 of column free space and act as the principal display area. The 'North Galleries' are smaller and more experimental in character. ‘9x9x9’ is a centrally located cubic space, flooded with natural light. An auditorium allows the presentation of films and lectures.
